- A proposed Settlement arising out of a security incident has been reached with Deanco Healthcare, LLC d/b/a Mission Community Hospital (“Deanco” or “Defendant”). On May 1, 2023, Deanco experienced a cybersecurity attack that affected its IT network (the “Data Security Incident”). A subsequent investigation determined that during this Data Security Incident a threat actor compromised certain database files that included addresses, dates of birth, Social Security Numbers, driver’s license numbers, financial account information, health insurance plan member IDs, claims data, and clinical information about care with Mission Community Hospital (collectively, “Personally Identifying Information”). If you were notified on or around November 21, 2023, by Deanco or a Deanco affiliate that your Personally Identifying Information may have been compromised because of the Deanco Healthcare Data Security Incident, you are included in this Settlement as a Class Member.
- Under the Settlement, Deanco has agreed to establish a $1,546,409.42 Settlement Fund. The Settlement Fund will pay for two (2) years of Medical Monitoring Services to all Class Members who elect to receive it, the California Statutory Claim Benefits in the form of a $100 cash payment (“California Statutory Payment”) for eligible Class Members, and/or a pro rata (equal share) residual cash payment (“Residual Cash Payment”). In addition to the Medical Monitoring Services, California Statutory Payment, and Residual Cash Payment, Class Members could elect to receive reimbursement of up to $5,000 per Class Member if they incurred certain Documented Losses (“Documented Loss Payment”). The Settlement Fund will also be used to pay the costs of the Settlement Administrative Expenses not to exceed $235,400, Court-approved Service Awards for the named Plaintiffs (“Class Representatives”), and the Fee Award and Costs. In addition, Deanco will undertake certain remedial measures and enhance security measures.
